About
I am a British / Portuguese, European educated
part 2 architectural designer (filmmaker, and
musician).
Having graduated with First-Class Honours
(and the portfolio prize) in Architecture BSc
and having just completed my 5th year at the
Bartlett School of Architecture UCL MArch
programme.
I am a highly conscientious and creative
interdisciplinary architectural practitioner
looking to exercise a somewhat eclectic
repertoire and unflagging curiosity, and for
the opportunity to continue to develop as a
designer.
‘An Ode to Apollo’ is a centre for research in acoustics and musical production, platforming both creative and scientific studies of sound. In defiance of the unrelenting roar of the neighbouring elevated-railway, the facility is a prototype in how we might occupy such acoustically-challenged pockets of the built environment. Contained within this architecture of attenuation, a series of inhabitable music chambers celebrate and amplify the weird and wonderful dynamics of sound and space.
